The Pepper Pot

Lovely property.

Everything we needed for a relaxing holiday. Kitchen very well stocked with utensils, pans etc. Spaceous and very comfortable. Comfortable bedrooms and lovely bathrooms.

The property was very comfortable.

We all had a lovely week. The children and dogs loved the garden. Just a few points the iron board was broken. Some of the oven trays was left dirty so we didn’t use them. The bottom three steps of the stairs are very slippery young and old found if It difficult. But over all everything was great and we would definitely recommend the property to friends. Regards the wilmot family Judithx

This is the second time we have stayed here and we weren't disappointed!

The house was clean and comfortable and well equipped and had everything we needed. The dogs loved running around in the garden. We had 3 short power cuts during our stay which triggered the burglar alarm each time. After the first one, we managed to silence the alarm but were left with the dashboard flashing so we phoned the company for help. They acted swiftly and contacted the owner who helped work out the issue. We were then able to switch it off after the following 2 power cuts. One maintenance point -some of the patio flag stones are quite loose on the steps and need some attention before they tip when trodden on. But we had a great week and wouldn't hesitate to stay again!

We had an amazing time and the cottage was beautiful, very spacious and had everything you need.

Perfect location and very peaceful. Would definitely go back x

Lovely house with great views and overall we enjoyed our stay however there are a few things that might improve things for future guests: BATHROOMS - shower tiles need a good clean, especially the shared bathroom as the tiles are grey but have brownish bloom over them, especially at the base; the shower caddy in the ensuite is too high for a small person to reach it comfortably (needs one with a longer drop) and the other bathroom didn't have one at all; KITCHEN - well equipped but the standard lamp did not work and the oven clock is still set to GMT.

A kitchen timer would be helpful, couldn't find one on the cooker LIVING ROOM - the clock has stopped at 6.30; the cordless light either needs new batteries or recharging; floor needs a good wash (my partner was doing his exercises on it and noticed); we found the living room heating difficult to manage, some days it had been pre-set to around 25 degrees (and yes, we did read the instructions, but still couldn't lower it) MAIN BEDROOM (we didn't use the others) - nice linen but the pillows felt like they had seen better days; OUTSIDE - pegs would be useful for laundry as ours kept blowing off the drier and sunloungers for warmer days would have been a nice addition PARKING - the house is advertised as having two parking spaces right outside but they'd have to be small cars and even then, because of the walls, the second would block the first in. We could get our estate car in but there wouldn't have been enough room for a second vehicle. INFO - there are links to local attractions via the app but that's very hard to read on a small phone screen and a printed version would have been much more helpful. Also, in previous properties we have found visitors' books a real help, it's nice to see what previous holiday makers have enjoyed on their stay

The Pepper Pot is an outstanding cottage.

Quiet location, lovely garden, like a tardis inside! Super comfy beds, large bathrooms, fantastically well-equipped kitchen, and roomy lounge. We loved our stay.

Fantastic stay at the Pepper Pot.

Everything you could possibly need was there. Garden was perfect for our 2 french bulldogs. Fully enclosed. Perfect holiday

Lovely clean cottage with large enclosed garden, everything is thought of to make it ‘home from home’.

Large welcome pack which was greatly appreciated and essentials provided such as dishwasher tablets, washing up liquid, cloths etc. Kitchen had all equipment required and more (never stopped in a cottage so well equipped). Parking in front of the cottage is a bit tight, but can get 2 cars in and another 2 parking spaces in the car park allocated to the cottage so plenty of space. Fantastic stay and would definitely love to return.

Overall the cottage was excellent and would recommend, however I have two small issues: 1.

The cottage was hard to find in the dark, the. Cottage name needs to be one with a light as there is not lights on the overall site. 2. The pillows are flat and old and need to be placed for some decent ones Sorry to be picky but you asked

We had an amazing stay.

The house was perfect everything as described and we would definitely stay there again.

Overall a good experience.

All guests in our party reported the beds very comfortable. Kitchen was absolutely great & well appointed though chairs need a good clean as cushions harboured lots of previous occupants crumbs. Two gripes ... would really benefit from a hand-held shower attachment in both showers so that you don't have to always be drenched. House needs a deep, thorough clean. I found cobwebs on side of sofa in lounge. The really irritating thing was the standard lamp that did not work, despite going to Robinsons in Amble and buying a replacement bulb. Please sort! Thank you

We had a lovely stay at the Pepperpot.

The accommodation was very comfortable, with a spacious garden for the children and lovely views. Everything we needed was provided, especially in the kitchen; we used the nespresso machine quite a lot! It was a nice relaxing base to come home to after a day out and we would thoroughly recommend it

This is a beautiful house we all loved it especially the boys racing up and down the garden

Had a lovely 3 weeks at The Pepper Pot.

A most perfect cottage to spend a holiday. We cooked several meals as well as eating out and the cottage was equipped for all our needs. The serenity of the back garden view was so relaxing we rarely had the TV on. Easy access to plenty of beaches by car and safe walking routes to Amble and Warkworth if you like a good walk.

Great property - we've already booked for next year.

Beautiful property very well equipped.

Very spacious

We really enjoyed our stay at the Pepper Pot.

The lounge is roomy & country views out of the French doors is lovely. The garden is great ….the bedrooms are good & the beds were very comfy. We were lucky enough to have great weather which added to a very comfortable stay. We would happily stay here again.

Absolutely superb property and location.

Only very minor gripe would be temperature in kitchen was set too high at 23 degrees and we couldn’t seem to turn it down. Every other aspect of this property and location was faultless

Lovely cottage.

Well stocked kitchen, it has everything you could need. Huge garden if you have a dog. Perfectly situated for visiting the local beaches and coast. Would definitely recommend this cottage.

This is a really lovely cottage and has a great garden for dogs.

(But if your dog can jump fences it may be a problem) The beds are comfy. There are lots of kitchen equipment Inc bun tin and electric hand mixer ( we baked with my little grandson) It's just let down by the scrimpy thimble sized ( literally) washing up liquid suitable for 2 bowls of washing up !! 3 dishwasher tablets 3 toilet rolls(for a 7 day stay for 6 people) Don't expect a welcome pack either. Never stayed in a cottage at this price point that doesn't provide a welcome pack with a few biscuits or wine or milk, cakes or other provisions, a full sized washing up liquid and at least 7 dishwasher tablets( these things are just a nice touch and would take this cottage up a notch without costing much)Main TV in living area is not very good if you want to watch streaming services. Would we stay again. Yes because the above are minor niggles and meant as constructive criticism and everything else was really good and the location is lovely too.

Perfect cottage Beds very excellent providing very good nights sleep The pooches loved the garden and were safe Peaceful away from fireworks too which we were hoping for Great location near to lots of beaches to explore Out of all the cottages we have been to this is one of the top rated ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

We had a great stay last week a pepper pot cottage it is very well equiped and in a great location to visit the multiple historic sites of the northumbrian region.

The cottage is very warm and relaxing with terrific views from the living room and has a great rear fully fenced garden ideal for the dog to get some air between days out and beach walks. Warkworth town, castle, along the river and the beach are must walking areas whilst your there.

Have stayed in many cottages and for the price this one didn’t meet expectations!

Although it was a lovely property, the decor, furnishings and general upkeep was definitely lacking! Also lack of welcome pack, not even a bottle of milk! Would definitely not recommend or stay here again unless I was assured the property had been tidied up.

The property was beautiful.

The views were fantastic and the house was in quite surroundings. The garden was perfect for our dog with a safe location to walk round at night. The kitchen had everything you would need and the bedrooms were spacious. Upstairs was as clean as a whistle but the living room required a going over with a duster and maybe someone to water the plant as we did it while we were there.

Absolutely lovely holiday home in a great location to explore Northumberland.

The staff we encountered were helpful and responsive. They fixed the dishwasher quickly - you don’t want to be washing up on your holidays! Two minor things - a side table with a broken leg in the lounge tipped over and nearly hit our dog! And none of the batteries in any TV remotes worked when we got there. Apart from that everything was great . The garden and views are brilliant and the kitchen superb and is well equipped. We had a good holiday here as a family and I would recommend to others.

No Wi-Fi working.

Lovely house and garden is fab ,so peaceful . We had a great time as a family of six adults and 2 small dogs

Absolutely perfect for dogs.

The garden is a game changer.

Only criticism was Needed a pizza cutter (not an issue ) .

One slight annoyance was cloak downstairs cistern took a long time to fill. Agsin not a major issue at all

The information on the gas boiler suggests the annual gas service is overdue I do have photos

This is our second stay at The Pepperpot.

The cottage is well equipped for everything you’ll need and is well located to explore the surrounding area. There really is so much to see and do during the day and relax back at the cottage in the evening, watching the sunset. Whilst I wouldn’t hesitate to return for a third time, we did notice that the wine fridge was still broken from last year and things like the sofas and some of the bedroom furniture is looking a bit tired now. When we arrived we also felt the level of cleaning was not as good as the previous year; the windows weren’t too clean and had marks on most likely left by a previous four legged occupant

Stayed at many holiday cottages, this one was right up there.

All needed for great stay and refreshing attention to detail and a high spec in general .Great views at rear and location for all the local sights. Hope to return one day soon. One negative though i am afraid and a bad one at that with agents. There was a broken light switch in master bedroom. It was dangerous and could have potentially have given us a shock when using it . I received voicemail on first day of stay (Saturday 30th March) from Sykes saying they had been made aware of it by housekeeping prior to us arriving and would be sorted out next week. I rang Sykes straight back and said id had this voicemail but was URGENT, explaining why, and needed attending too immediately. No one come to fix over the weekend or indeed the next week as stated in voicemail either. It was same ( broken) when we left following Friday. For this lapse level of service and also being a H&S issue id rate them as an agent 0/10

We had a delightful stay in Pepperpot cottage.

The accommodation is very comfortable, the kitchen has everything you need. Views from sitting room and master bedroom are stunning. The dogs loved the enclosed garden and we were fortunate enough to have some decent weather to be able to sit outside. Cottage is well situated for coastal walks or visiting other places of interest.

Yes.

A lovely, well equipped property.

Very comfortable and quiet, and a perfect secure garden for dogs.

The property was 95% perfect, some areas needed a better clean after the summer rush, the oven and cooker hood need a professional clean.

Baking trays and non stick frying pans need replacing. We are definitely rebooking for next year as our daughter is chronically unwell and the quiet and lovely location helped her have a relaxing break

We have just come back from a 2 week holiday staying at the pepper pot.

Well I must say WOW, it is a absolutely beautiful place to stay and give it 5 stars in all areas. The kitchen is very well stocked with everything you need and the owners have thought of everything. The lovely spacious bedrooms and bathrooms allow all the family their own areas. The living room is beautiful with the fantastic view of the very large garden and fields. Our dog was in heaven with the garden. We will definitely stay again and 100% recommend it to anyone else. Thank you so much for an incredible stay.

Beautiful cottage with enclosed garden and fabulous views.

This is a house with stairs which wasn’t clear from the listing, we incorrectly(our error) thought from the photographs there was a downstairs bedroom. View from the master bedroom was amazing. Kitchen fully equipped for self- catering. Excellent butchers in Amble and cafe- Bertram’s in Warkworth.

Probably the most well equipped and comfortable cottage we have stayed in.

Situated on a farm complex with a number of other holiday cottages and residential properties. There was everything we could have needed and it was so peaceful and relaxing. Fabulous views from the rear of the cottage. Great space for dogs as the garden is fully enclosed, although if you have a very big dog or one that can jump quite high, they would possibly be able to jump over the fence. The cottage was clean and very comfortable, especially the beds. It’s an ideal base for sightseeing and returning back to a lovely cottage in the evening with a real fire for any chilly nights. Would recommend the Masons Arms pub in Warkworth for superb meals, especially the steak and ale pie but beware, the portions of pie are not for the faint hearted!! They are also very dog friendly. The Cook and Barker at Newton on the Moor is also another great dog friendly pub. Cragside and Rothbury are well worth visiting and a visit to Rothbury family butchers for their cragside cracker sausages are a must! Can recommend Turnbull’s butchers if you want to eat at the cottage. Great meat and various pies etc. A visit to Holy Island is definitely worth it if the tide times work for you. We had the best crab sandwiches ever there and there’s a fabulous little art gallery with the artist, John Tierney in residence. We bought another of his pictures and it was great to have another chat with him. The cottage is just up the road from Morwick ice cream dairy and we can certainly recommend this! We also recommend a visit to Amble, Warkworth, Morpeth and of course, Alnwick. So much to see and do and what better way to do this than having a lovely cottage to stay in. We could have happily stayed for longer and will no doubt be booking the cottage again.

The Pepper Pot is an amazing place to stay and we all felt instantly at home.

There is so much space in the property and the garden and views are fabulous. A problem with the travel cot provided was quickly remedied, for which we were very grateful. The only slight suggestion I would have is regarding the baking trays for the oven. Most of them were too large to fit onto the shelves and it would be helpful if some suitably sized trays could be provided. That aside, we could not have had a better stay and we would highly recommend this gorgeous property, which is perfectly located for exploring all the beauty that Northumberland has to offer !

We arrived excited to stay in luxury cottage as described - unfortunately we were very disappointed on some aspects: •No toilet paper in some bathrooms •Dirty oven and oven dishes and frying pans, all had burnt food in them •cobwebs hanging from the lights in lounge • very dusty in places (accept in a rural area but not the 1st day you arrive) • the grip tape coming off the stairs •no actual wood left for the fire just some kindling • Friday - no hot water - eventually re managed to restart boiler but possibly needs checking….

We contacted the local office re toilet rolls and oven - and it was sorted that day - we did it discover the dirty frying pans until Wednesday evening - so had to get the scourers out before could use…not happy .. we also reported the other issues so the office were aware and they did apologise We were disappointed and our expectations were not met, albeit the list appears to be little things it all adds up when you want a stress free relaxing holiday.

Supurb accomodation in every way.

Great location for exploring Northumberland or having a relaxing night in. We cant wait to return.

A wonderful stay at a fantastic property which had everything you will need and more.

Very private, quiet and relaxing. Sofas and beds very comfortable and plenty of space for everyone to chill out.The views out the back are very picturesque.Garden huge and secure. Kitchen wonderful large and well equipped. Our second stay at this property and I’m sure it will not be our last . Good base for exploring the whole area.

We have stayed at the Pepper Pot several times and each time everything has been to the highest standard.

A lovely property, well equipped and comfortable and such a peaceful location.

Our first visit to Northumberland but it won't be our last.

Such fabulous beaches, castles a plenty, friendly people and we've been extremely lucky with the weather. The Pepper Pot is probably the best fitted out cottage we have ever stayed in. It's been a wonderful visit enjoyed by all of us. Thank you!

Our second visit to the Pepper Pot and still as fabulous as it was 2 years ago.

So cosy with such comfy beds. We enjoyed lots of lovely walks along the beaches and fabulous cake and coffeee visits to Bertrams in Warkworth. The friendliness of everyone in Northumberland is what makes this place so welcoming. Thank you, we shall return again!

Very warm comfortable kitchen very well equipped furnished beautifully.

The garden is fabulous

Fabulous house the owner has thought of everything that anyone needed.

Very comfortable we would certainly stay here again.

Absolutely beautiful and very well equipped.

The location was perfect too. Can’t wait to book again.

Exactly as advertised and certainly the best property we have stayed in for space, cleanliness and having everything available that you could want in a lovely quiet location.

Will book again here.

I don't think we could have found a better property.

Spotlessly clean, more than fully equipped, fluffy towels and comfy beds.

The Pepper Pot is in a fantastic peaceful location with wonderful views.

The house has everything you could need, with the kitchen being very well equipped. The rooms are all spacious and the general finish to a very high specification. We really enjoyed our stay and would love to return.

A beautiful and well equipped cottage with a large dog friendly garden and great views.

Excellent furniture and fittings. Would certainly recommend.

Beautiful cottage, immaculately clean and in a fantastic, quiet location for exploring the Northumberland Coast.

Wow.

What a property. Northumberland is wonderful. Definitely would recommend ?
